The Chautauqua University, which

The timber work of the domes of
the Church of ST. Mark, at Venice, is
more than $40 years old, and is still in a

Many English clergymen are suffer
ing severely from loss in the revenue of
their parishes. In four benetices in one
archdeaconry in the diocese of Peter

from $4,000 to $1,000.
In the University of Glasgow a
scholarship of the value of 5000 has

The report of the Board of Educa-

ployed was 3,603 The twenty-eight

attendance of 1904. N Y. Tribune.
We have seen the school advance
to public and free system; in place
ot the ignorant pedant who boarded
round and taught the whole family out
of one book, we have full graded schools
in backwoods districts where the schol-
ars are so few that each pupil has to in
himself make two grades, in order to
have enough pupils to go round among
all the grades. -Ihe PotroL
The Springfield (Mass) Union says:
''The proposition to levy State tax
for the purpose of schools will fill the
hill towns with JOY. There is princi
pie of justice in it. The State compels
every town to maintain schools; yet the
ability of towns to do this is very I'M
equal. Some towns are the favorite
residences of rich men and others are
deserted by enterprising sons as soon as
the law allows"
1t is interesting to know that one at
least of the best traditions of classical
Greece has lasted down to these latter
days. This is the readiness of rich citi-

private expense. The University al

moment of more than S12,000,000
There is hospital at Athens, too, en-
tertaining more than hundred aged
brothers which was founded by single
wealthy Greek citizen.

SUDDEN RICHES.
How a Clothes Peddler Brought Wealth to &
Cap talist.

sAGabriel Karsky rang the bell. His
business was that of a secondhand
clothes-dealer and the bell was that of
No. 20 Liberty street, where David
Cohen, capitalist, resided Karsky
kept little stufiy shop at 335 Sixth
street and often in the pursuit of his
calling he took turn in the fresh air
and gathered up old garments to be
furnished up as new. Gabriel had
often rang the bell at No. 20 Liberty
street and when he did SO this rainy
afternoon, about a month ago and
Mrs. Cohen came to the door she said,
pleasantly, Nothing to sell to-day

ing a crumbled paper from his pocket,
"Ive got Louisiana lottery ticket

Cohen, however, would have nothing

sisted and the argument went on I'M
til Mr.. Cohen impatiently shouted
from the sitting room to take the cou-
pom, give the man dollar and let him
go. The ticket and Mrs. Cohen's dol
lar changed places and Gabriel pocket
ing the piece went on his way in the
quiet contentment Of small profits.
On the 10th of February the list OF
prizes was published in the Chronicle
and Mrs. Cohen looking over it with
mild curiosity, saw with amazement
that ticket No. 1887 had drawn the
first capital prize, and that her coupon
was worth $4,000. She collected the
money through Wells, Fargo & Cos
bank, and remembering the circum
stances of her purchase, sent Karsky
500.

USEFUL MICROBES.
An Earnest an Authoritative Plea for
These Prosecuted AnimaIculs.

An Earnest an Authoritative Plea for
These Prosecuted AnimaIcule.
A great deal of ill-feeiing has been
excited anent these unfortunate ami
malcul@, whose size should have in
sured them protection against con-
tumely and insult. There is scarcely a
disease, scarcely mishap, but what
they are inveighed against and con-
demned without hearing. and often,
indeed, without being even called upon
to put in an appearance. As an indie
pendent journal we feel it our duty to
protest against wholesale and often un-
founded denunciations by individuals
not unfrequentlv formulated more
with a view to ACKNOWLEDGMENT
and notoriety that from any positive
ill-will toward these humble little
beasts. We will not deny that few
of them have gone astray. When they
engage in the elaboration of the virus
of typhoid, smallpox and measles, to
say nothing of hydrophobia, and a
variety of other uncomfortable visitita-
tons for mankind, it is only natural
that we should retaliate by calling
them opprobious names in dog Latin,
and by poisoning them wholesale when
and where we can bring our animosity
to bear upon them. They have mani
testify violated the statutes in such cases
made and provided. But on the other
hand, we will assert, with the courage
and independence that is our wont,
that If there were no microbes there
would be no mankind, and our dis
putes would be silenced in death. AS
an American contemporary points
out, there are about a thousand
species busily engaged in the destruc-
ton of wood, and, were it not for their
Intervention, that all the trees that
grew would be standing to-day, living,
or it may be dead, but in any case as
solid, as sound and as firm as when
they ceased to grow, and all life must
have been choked out ages since. Fire
alone would have relieved mother earth
of the incubus thus weighing upon her,
but only with the result of leaving every
patch of land parched and ash-cov-
cred area, inadequate any rate, for
some time-to the maintenance of life,
even if we ourselves had not at the
same time been prematurely scorched
off the face of the earth. They
are accused of communicating our
water, but it is equally certain
that were it not for their ceaseless ac-
tivity all the water in the world would
be concentrated solution of excre-
mentitious and noxious products, the
disintegraton of which is due to these
little organisms. Our very digestion
depends upon them to great extent,
and if they were withdrawn from the
circulation we should very shortly be-
come painfully aware of the fact No,
let there be no class distinctions; every
community has its black sheep, and
these should very properly be branded
with the mark of infamy. The exist
ence, however, of these misconducted
atoms will not justify our extending
the anathemas to the countless millions
of their species in whom, and with
whom, we live, and move, and have
our being. -MedicaL Press.
